A DIVISION OF ayt,palv LUMBER CO LTD
By JACK RIDDELL
P Huron-Middlesex
This week in the Legislature,
the Minister of Agriculture and
Food introduced the Farm
Income Stabilization Act, 1976.
Mr. Newman, in his in-
troduction said that it will play a
vital role in maintaining a strong
agricultural base in Ontario to
the benefit of both producer and
consumer, He outlined the events
and policies that have led to this
legislation, Farmers, he said
have always been plagued by the
problem of cash returns fluc-
tuating wildly from one year to
the next. With farm production
costs spiralling, there has been
intensive discussion in recent
years of ways to help offset
periods of low market prices and
thus bring greater stability to the
whole agriculture and food
complex. The goal is to set
support price levels high enough
to be meaningful in the lean
years, but not so high that they
would act as incentives for over-
production.
The key provisions of the Act,
Mr. Newman said, provides for
the appointment of five or more
members to a Farm Income
Stabilization Commission of
Ontario. They will administer a
permanent fund for programmes
providing support to all Ontario
commodities other than those
named or designated under the
Federal Act and those regulated
by marketing boards that both
set prices and allot quotas. The
latter category comprises dairy
products, poultry and eggs. Our
Beef-Calf programme will
operate independently until the
Government's contracts with
producers expire in 1980, at which
time it will also come under the
commission's regulations. The
programme is thus designed to
embrace all commodities for
which no federal support is
available, except in those cases
where prices established by
marketing boards are higher
than the stabilization support
level.
Commodities for which
stabilization is made available
will be supported at a level equal
to 90 percent of the average
market price for the previous five
years, adjusted for production
cost changes in the current year
as compared to the five year
average, This is the same level at
which the federal programme
operates, so Ontario's plan
should have no undesirable ef-
fects on the marketing systems in
our sister provinces.
Mr. Newman said if unusual
circumstances made it
necessary, the commission could
provide extra support for a
specific commodity by tem-
porarily increasing the base level
above 90 percent.
All the commissioners will be
members of Ontario's
agricultural community and
every effort will be made to
ensure a broad representation of
interests. The Commission's
general manager will be its chief
administrative officer. Subject to
ministerial approval, the com-
mission may also engage outside
experts if necessary. It will be
empowered to consult and con-
duct discussions with marketing
boards and any other
organizations or groups of
producers of this province. The
Commission's accounts will be
audited by the Provincial Auditor
and its annual reports will be
submitted to this House.
Ontario's promised legislation
to protect buyers of new houses
from shoddy workmanship has
been introduced by the Minister
of Consumer and Commercial
Relations. The Act, expected to
take effect this fall, would
guarantee that "a home is con-
structed in a workmanlike
manner, free of major structural
defects and free from defects in
materials, is fit for habitation
and constructed in accordance
with the Ontario Building Code."
The warranties would cover all
defects for one year and major
structural faults for five years,
and will apply to all new homes
except cottages and rental units,
The Minister told reporters that
"high consumer demand for new
housing has resulted in a
situation where even houses
which are poorly built are readily
sold at high prices, which makes
this law necessary." The law, will
curb the small number of
builders - "less than 15 percent" -
who construct poor housing, and
under the legislation all builders
in the province will have to
register with a non-profit cor-
poration, to include represen-
tatives of the government and the
Consumers Association of
Canada, which will have the
power to order builders to carry
out repairs.
Some three years ago, in-
cidentally, Phil Givens, Liberal
MPP for Armourdale, introduced
a Private Member's Bill to
provide protection for purchasers
of new homes and mandatory
adherence to the minimum
standards of the Ontario Building
Code. His Bill also proposed that
houses be inspected at least four
times during the construction
period and be warrantied by the
• builder against all hidden defects
for a period of five years after
completion of construction and
against all obvious defects for a
period of one year after com-
pletion.
There has been considerable
discussion in the Legislature
recently about industrial health
hazards, as a result of questions
raised by Liberal Leader Stuart
Smith and other Opposition
Members. The Minister of Health
announced that the Government
has inititated courses to train
inspectors from the Ministries of
Labour, Environment and
Natural Resources, to recognize
potential health hazards, making
simple tests on air conditions and
noise. In the past, inspectors
have checked on such matters as
industrial safety only. Following
the Minister's announcement, the
Minister of Labour said she
would like to employ women to
inspect industrial plants because
"females are a little more sen-
sitive to housekeeping conditions
than perhaps some males are".
At present all the 170 inspectors
are men, and the Minister said
she genuinely believes that
women are generally neater than
men and would be more likely to
spot health hazards caused by
dirt and dust.
The. Minister of Health also
announced that he will try to
ensure reports of his Ministry's
Occupational Health Protection
Branch are posted in work
places. The reports usually go to
the Management of companies
inspected and are not always
shared with workers. In the event
that there are any legislative
obstacles to posting this in-
formation in work ,places, ,the
Minister intends to endeavour to
obtain Cabinet support for
removing them.
According to the Minister of
Natural Resources anyone can
purchase up to 100 pounds of
dynamite at a local hardware
store or other licenced outlet. In
an interview the Minister said
that all it takes to buy explosives
is proof of identity. Purchasers
must also sign for the dynamite
and indicate what they intend to
use it for and where, but they are
not asked whether they have any
experience in using explosives or
whether they intend "to blow up
their mothers or blow up a bank
or anything." The Minister had
previously been asked in the
Legislature whether the Ontario
Mining Act will be changed to
make it difficult for people to
steal dynamite from mining
operations. He said his Ministry
has a committee composed of
mining and labour represen-
tatives studying possible
revisions of the Act.
Other items of interest this
week include the news that a
research team of Ministry of
Transportation and Com-
munications is in the initial
stages of collecting information
on electrically-powered car
models and may recommend
some for testing in the fall. One
possible public application would
allow commuters to use electric
cars between their homes and the
nearest GO-transit station. Also,
the Natural Resources Minister
said Ontario will not reduce the
number of beach patrols in
provincial parks this year,
although such a reduction had
previously been announced,
